Is it too soon to have intercourse?

[anonymous31]

I had my son a little over a week ago. I had no stitches or tearing and pushed him out in one push is it wrong to feel ready for sex any other women who were ready almost or 2 weeks in?

I think waiting for 4-6 weeks is because of possible infections that can happen if you have to soon. I would say to try to wait at least 4 weeks if you can.
